Genuine question, not being salty. Always wondered why there are so many GPs who seem reluctant to give MC.

How many days MC depends on the condition and also the patients work and obligations

Eh dr give MC of questioned have to explain and justify why X number of days.

1 day 2 day usually no problem.

Between 0 days and giving 1 day usually you are seeing a very uptight dr or a young dr.

I doubt SMC or anyone would fault a dr for giving 1 day MC except maybe for court absence which is more strict.

How many days you talking about that you could not get and think dr is ngiao?

Write complaint and see how lor.

These days patients are all potential complaints. Some drs see them as such. And to avoid complaints best to do what the customer wants (within ethical professional fudiciary limits of course)
